requirements for highly secure hosting

Diverse routing and connection to our

Multi-Platform Services network, plus 24/7

and continuity of services for their critical,

time-sensitive trafc.

The challenges we had to overcome

Eversheds, a multinational law rm with

exacting IT demands, needed to migrate from

ageing technology with insufcient capacity,

to a new and more capable platform.

Due to their heavy reliance on IT, smooth

integration to the new platform was essential,

and they would need utterly dependable data

centres with the exibility to provide extra

capacity on-demand during the transition.

Eversheds agreed with their IT provider,

Computacenter that the new platform should

be co-located at Vodafones power efcient

data centres.

How we helped

We provided Eversheds with the highest

standard of co-location reliability and exibility

they required for their new data centres.

The solution gave them security, economy

and on-demand resources.

We identied spatial capacity requirements,

helped with cabinet and rack designs, and

dealt with power and weight restrictions. We

also provided on-demand additional capacity

to enable the new and legacy pl atforms to run

simultaneously, allowing the migration to take

place without disruption to services. Our on-

site team helped prepare the implementation

plans and liaised with Computacenters projectmanager to ensure they met Eversheds

timescales. Vodafone continues to provide

on-going support.
